  • Built to Scale, Not to Suffer w/ Chris Kille | Ep. 174

    What happens when a founder hits burnout—and decides no one else should have to?

    You get Chris Kille, CEO of EO Staff, on the Biz/Dev podcast with David and Gary, talking about what it really takes to scale a company without sacrificing your sanity. 

    Chris doesn’t preach balance—he builds it, from systems to staffing.

    This episode digs into the real cost of overwork, how to scale with intention, and why freedom should be baked into your business model, not tacked on later.

  • Your Branding Success w/ Ann Powell | Ep. 173

    What happens when a Fortune 100 brand strategist builds a collective around purpose, not process?

    You get Ann Powell, co-founder of Offset Collective, on the Biz/Dev podcast with David and Gary talking about what it really means to lead with the why…or maybe don;t…

    They get into how to give your audience all the feels (yes, even in B2B), and why the best brands don’t just sell — they connect.

    This one hits strategy, storytelling, and the sweet spot where emotion meets execution.

  • Tin Foil Hat with Biz/Dev Podcast | Ep. 165

    In this episode of the Biz/Dev podcast, David and Gary go guest-free and get real about the biggest client pain points we’re hearing right now. From the lingering fear of AI (spoiler: it’s not coming for your job—unless your job is really boring) to what’s actually working for businesses embracing AI today, we break it all down.
    Offshoring vs. U.S.-based development is a hot debate, and we’re pulling back the curtain on why Big Pixel is 100% U.S.-based (and why that decision matters for our clients).
